Used finish mower for the first time

[kthompson]

stuckmotor and sandman...that is too funny on the mower. Wonder how many times I have said "Lord please help such".

stuckmotor, hard to make decisions for a sibling or parent. Not what we grow up expecting but that is part of life more often than we may wish. Pray for your brother and God's guidance you need.

Kthompson,
Many thanks again. I think our prayers are being answered. My brother's indicator numbers are better and they're going to try taking him off of the ventilator tomorrow. They say he'll be grouchy when he wakes up.

He sure will be. You've been driving his tractor!!
Good news though!

 

[stuckmotor]

Spanner,
You might want to send up a prayer for the tractor.

Prayer is fine. . . But I think I'd get the blades fixed first so your brother's blood pressure doesn't escalate when he comes off the ventilator lol

Glad to hear he's improving and he can make his own dialisys decisions.

Health issues are best inoculated with laughter mixed with concern. Grouchy is a good indicator of an ability to fight his way back to healthy.

Stuck, update on your brother?

It is not just finishing mower. I have an older brother who knows so much more than me as I am younger and know nothing. Me in semi dress clothes (white long sleeve and khaki dress pants) have been helping out nephews help him get wire from wrapped around spindle on his rough cut of course after he ran over the post. He knew he was cutting a fence line but even telling me yesterday I think there is wire in there I failed to get him to understand he needed to get the wire out first. If you run a mower enough sooner or later you hit such.

Whats going to upset you if your brother says you know I have two hoses and some fence post laying there somewhere.

Do pray for both of you, his recovery and the guidance and strength you need.

Kthompson,
Your prayers are always appreciated. They tried to take my brother of of the ventilator yesterday but his breathing wouldn't allow it. They plan to try again today. When he wakes up I can ask him where he put his center link and finish cutting the grass. The finish mower has two swivel wheels in front and two in back so I just pulled it around the other day. It wasn't as easy as I'd have liked.

 

[stuckmotor]

Axle hub. After removing the hoses the mower seemed to cut just fine. It skimmed over he posts, so, I don't think the blades are bent. I did break a link in the chain that attaches the a frame to the back of the mower. It should be easy enough to fix with a repair link.

For the time being at least, my brother is off the ventilator and breathing with an oxygen mask. He's too weak to talk so I still can't find out where he put the center link. Please keep praying.
